Williams: Texas Tech's chances in Austin don't get much better than this

As Texas Tech arrives at the end of its regular season, the Red Raiders are presented with a rare opportunity: the chance to beat Texas in Austin, something that hasn’t happened since 1997.

Could it set up any better?

u25a0 Texas’ top two running backs are hurt, leading rusher D’Onta Foreman sidelined by surgery for a broken finger and Johnathan Gray questionable with a foot injury.

u25a0 The Longhorns aren’t good to begin with. They’re 4-6, much like that 1997 team that finished 4-7.

u25a0 Their passing game’s nearly nonexistent, and special teams have cost them games.
